Frank Gehry and Sydney Pollack are two of the best-known names in their
respective fields of architecture and filmmaking. In his first documentary,
Academy Award-winning director Pollack turns his camera onto his long-time
friend Gehry, one of the world's most celebrated architects and creator of some
of the greatest buildings of the modern era, including the Guggenheim Museum in
Bilbao and the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. Pollack uncovers Gehry's
creative process, from his early abstract sketches and three dimensional models
to the awe-inspiring finished structures. Shot in an informal, highly accessible
style and featuring contributions from Gehry's contemporaries, clients and
admirers, including Philip Johnson, Dennis Hopper and Julian Schnabel among
others, the film is a fascinating portrait of the whose masterpieces have
transformed a conventional science into an extraordinary art form.
